In New York, where Trump was convicted, there are “collateral consequences” of being convicted of a felony.
In Florida, felons lose civil rights, including the ability to hold public office and serve on a jury.
Trump is a Florida resident, and Florida defers to New York law on the question of felons voting.
In New York, convicted felons cannot obtain a permit to possess a firearm.
That’s not at issue in this New York case, and it’s not going to happen when Republicans control the House as they currently do.
